Last Day in Paradise

There's no better summer treat than sunshine and ukuleles. Celebrate the end of West End institution The Box and do it with a smile.

Overview

Open every hyperlink in this article and you’ll understand why the ukulele should be the Eighth Man Made Wonder in the World. It lacks the six string complexity of the guitar, has a sound sweeter then baby chipmunk giggles, and is so compact you can take it anywhere from on a flight to a funeral (don't take a ukulele to a funeral). Plus, whether you’re a novice, Amanda Palmer or a member of The Ukulele Orchestra of Great Britain it’s impossible to look anything but adorable with a ukulele in hand.

As such, West End’s The Box is going to be radiating sunshine, sweetness, and friendly fine sounds from the 19th to the 25th of January.  Last Day in Paradise is a week long ukulele display, all set in the family friendly Box backyard. There’ll be 27 artists designed ukuleles, some super summer vibes and on the 25th there will be a Tropicana party from 4pm to 9pm.

This is also the last event for The Box so we sure to go and give someone a high-five, while suppressing an upside down smiley face :(.
